\"book<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

After acting on Broadway<\/a>,
living in the Big Apple –
back to small town & big bullies?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back to Pennsylvania where his soon-to-be high school has torn down the theater wing! Of course, Nate will find a way to put on a show, with his BFF’s expert organizational skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you missed the first books in the Nate series, you’ll quickly pick up the story of this theater kid who got his big break as a young teen – in a musical with a very short run, despite the outstanding singing of so-cute Jordan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head to your local library<\/a> or independent bookstore<\/a> for this September 2018 release and the rest of the series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out the audiobook excerpt on the publisher’s website<\/a>, too – the author is a great narrator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
